How does the game fit the theme?
Can't trust this chef. Keep an eye on him.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code was written from scratch.
Art assets were either specifically drawn for the game, or images that were cropped, heavily edited and then painted over.
Music was made from scratch.
Approximately half of the sound effects were recorded in house, and the rest were edited from Pixabay.

super cool visuals, i was expecting him to be staring at me while i ate as a jumpscare
his face seems familiar...
cool experience!
The eerie Willem Dafoe chef and uncomfortable atmosphere were so well done, loved the tension of watching him cook while trying not to starve! Clearing empty plates felt a bit confusing at first, but the sound design and concept are peak
Ohhh I wanted panning in those SFXs!
But still, good innovative game.
Panning SFX is a great idea! I think I was too focused on making the volume of the kitchen SFX lower when looking at the table that I forgot that completely. If a full version of the game ever comes out, I'll be sure to add left and right audio panning for even more immersion, thanks to your comment.
Game is cool but gameplay takes too long. Waiting sessions are a bit boring
I think the game had a bug that all i ate was fine and i just died of hunger. Loved the visuals and it was great looking.
I was waiting for a jumpscare to happen but there was none. And was he william dafoe? becus they looked a like !
(also if you had free time , pls check out our game too )

Def a bug! let me starve our programmer.
Joking aside, we felt it pretty bare bones when we finished so your comments are very much apreciated for we will continue to develope this game after the Gamejam. And yes, my team will check it out!
Not a bug, just an unfortunate lack of development time to flesh out an actual win condition or even a retry button. I had to submit it as this high score based arcade-style game 20 minutes before the deadline lol.
It was a fantastic gaming experience! The sound design perfectly matches the eerie atmosphere—everything about it is excellent! I collapsed from hunger right at the end, so I was frantically wishing the shopkeeper would just hurry up
game is really fun!! i would love to see an update where the game gets more difficult as you go!
We're actually planning on going deeper into the mechanics and gameplay after the jam! Still sorting out the details though so no promises.
Very cool game! It has a simple but fun gameplay loop, and the sound effects are great at adding tension to the atmosphere!
Cool game! I really liked the art style!
Thank you so much!! we poured a lot of love and disgust into it. ♡
probably my favourite jam game i've played so far, simple but super fun gameplay loop and incredibly eerie atmosphere and artstyle.
... I also like when his butt gets very big for whatever reason. That's my favourite part
Happy you noticed it lol! It's a low chance to see this big dumpy you were one of the lucky few.
Great visuals i like it it made me so nervous fr
Thank you for playing it!! ♡
Cool, it’s literally a simulator with William Defoe. Rate my game too
what a great idea that is executed so well omg, I actually enjoyed it and it got a good feel to it, very well done
Thank you so much!
YOU REALLY PUT SO MUCH HARDWORK ON THIS LOVED IT!
I loved the art and atmosphere, really cool game
Thank you for playing !!
Big fan of this. The game design is self-explanatory, willem dafoe is cooking me up some bangers... One problem. I cannot figure out how to get a new dish once I finish the first one. I really tried to figure it out, but maybe I'm dumb. Clicking the existing plate or clicking the new one didn't seem to do anything.
Shove the empty plate away by holding click on the text box on the left!
My William Dafoe actualy remebered i have an oyster allergy. Cooked 10 meals whitout them straight.
Then probably got mad i havent paid for any of it and straight up decided to kill me. 16 dishes tho. Don't invite me to all you can eat.
Art was incredible. Those frying pans are so sharp. The meals itself was realy nicly done in terms of mechanics and art.
Chef's kiss
William Dafoe had to stop you lol. Thank you so much really appropriate the sweet comment!
This game is so eerie, but fits the theme so good. The visuals and sound design are also really good. This is one of the best games ive seen in this jam so far, with its unique art style and fitting theme!
Oh I'm gonna remember this one long after the jam. This one just nails the uncomfortable vibe and everything from the visuals to the sound effects is made to emphasize this feeling.
I think the hunger bar is drained just a bit too quickly. After just a few dishes I was desparate and would take anything the chef would make. Just a minor complaint.
Really good stuff here
